Mrs. E. L. LITCHFIELD.

Rev. Donald Fraser has under consider
alton unanimous call to the parish in Or
leans, Mass.
The late Hon. E. F. Pillsbury, of whose po-
litoal career opinions differ, was exemplary
in private life, and he was a worker in the
Universalist church.
AT the recent meeting of the Essex Sunday
school Union an address was given upon
''The Sunday school and its Work" by Rev.
DIR. E. G. Bolles, of Salem. The drift was
to show that while our schools are now doing
great deal of good, they are still in the
gristle- only on the way to the bone; and
particulars were elucidated in the direction
of progress.
Rev. E. Davis corrects in the Leader the
reports of the insanity of the Rev. Josiah
Marvin, corrected also in The UNIvERsALIsT
of last week. Mr.. Davis says that Br. Marvin
sis now at his old home, Alstead, suffering
from illness, but has not been in any asylum.
1t is very desirable that, so far as possible,
the impression which has gone abroad re-
specting this brother should be corrected
He was quite popular preacher in our de-
nomination. Has been settled at Stoneham,

GOLDEN WEDDING.

An event worthy of notice occurred at
the residence of Mr.. and Mrs. W. Fl.
Cooper, of Columbia Center, Licking
county, o., on the 10Th ult-the celebra-
ton of the fiftieth anniversary of their
marriage, or in other words, their golden
wedding" A large gathering Of the rela-
tives and friends assembled to do honor
to the occasion and the aged couple.
They received a number of costly and
appropriate presents. Six of the eldest
present, averaged about seventy-six years
of age, that being the age Of Mr.. Cooper,
Mrs. Cooper being two years younger.
They have had nine children. Five are
now living, who were all present, even
from west of the Mississippi, to do honor
and to bless their beloved parents.
Father and Mother Cooper have lived
in Lima township, Licking county, ever
since their marriage, and are beloved and
respected By all. Both are avowed Uni
yersalists and strong temperance work
ers, and we believe members of the Jer-
sey church. All their children are also
believers in the same faith. Father Coop
or was a subscriber to the "Star in the
West from it's first to last issue, and is
now taking The UNIvERsALIsT.
The Editor tenders all good wishes to
this venerable couple, who do honor to
our faith.

took the ground that right and wrong are
essentially the same in God and man, max
ing the application, among others that while
man was bound to forgive his enemies, God
could not punish him forever. After the close

ingly said
"'Dr. Van Anda, allow me to congratulate
you on your excellent and thoughtful dis

VAIN ASSUMPTIONS TO GOD.

l cannot see the propriety of saying, "Bess
God" God can and does bless us, but we
cannot bless him. st. Paul took the right
view of it, speaking of Melchizedek bless
ing Abram. The less is blessed by the great
err. To say, "Glory to God" looks to me
like folly. Is God pleased with such vain as
criptions? Certainly not, for he cannot be
moved. To say, Praise the Lord,' is little
or no bette for God cannot be fattered or
be elated by anything that we can do or say.
Such practices originated with men of limit
ed knowledge of God, when men thought God,
like themselves, was very liable to change his
mind, TO repent, and finally get angry and
get over it again when Moses would not con-
sent TO be made the father of great nation.
David deals largely in descriptions of praise,
but speaks of his enemies as being enemies
of God, and prays for their destruction in
stead of their repentance and salvation, as
he would have done had he better knowl-
edge of God. 1 do not wish to be under
stood as opposed to true, honest, sincere
worship of our loving Father. believe
the necessity and utility of prayer, not that
we can change the dealings of God with us,
only by sincere prayer do we place ourselves
in the proper attitude to receive the blessings
always in store for us. Our Fatherin heaven
knows what things we are in need of before
we ask him. R.HR.

1t was among the several eircum-
stances OF good fortune which belonged to
the position of Henry Ward Beecher
that he was nominally orthodox. The
same man, with the same ideas, energies,
sympathies and POWERS, would never
have reached the same classes and WELD
ed the same influence from heterodox
platform. He was nearer to most and
not further from any. On the other
hand, the existence Of the liberal churches
made it easier for him TO be liberal. The
advance guard in the orthodox churches
are not, as a rule, disposed to recognize
their indebtedness to liberal Christians
But Unitarians and Universalists make
progressive orthodoxy possible. NJ A.

THE Christian idea of safety" re-
marks Phillips Brooks, sis that OF sal
ovation. and the salvation of the New
Testament is something positive. The
"way to give safety to man is not by
quitting a wall about him, but by put
citing strength into him, giving him a
vitality that will make him cast dan
''ger from him as the sunbeam casts
''away the cloud" This is well said
We need to make the application in
both morals and religion. 1t is the
rising up into lofty and unselfish
forms of duty, and into the region OF
noble living, that brings the best results
into human character; that furnishes
he true safety for both time and eter-

BISHOP WARREN, of the Methodist
church, evidently has his own opinion
of the style of certain ministers who
preach gently to rich sinners. He hits
off the style in this way: Brethren,
YOU must repent, as it were; and be
converted, in a measure; or you will be
damned to some extent" Is not the
good Bishop aware that the orthodox
doctrines are now preached in this way
when they are preached at all? The
ministers are ashamed to preach the
old dogmas in the gruff, but manly
way of the past, and so adopt this new
style. 1t is the era Of palliative and
all the bishops in the land cannot
change the trend.

THE SYMPATHETIC SPIRIT A Ne
OESSITY.

We need to remember in dealing with
the question of religion, that it is not
to be Judged from the standpoint OF the
unbeliever, who may scorn its verltles
and mock at its sanctions. The wisdom
from above is not to be approached IN
this way. If it is so approached 1t VIII
convey no true apprehension OF It's Dig
nity. 1t demands for itself the sympa-
thetic spirit in common with art and
science and literature, indeed with all
other departments of the worlds actlvl-
ties. Would we test its realities, would
we sound its claims, would we verify
its credentials There is way to
this end that is not the way OF the
scorner. 1t is rather the way of sim
cerity and truthfulness, of the humble,
teachable spirit, and the heart in sympa-
thy with its own nature. 1.-The enc
"mies of religion" says the frank and
manly Gibbon, himself an unbelieyer,
but a philosopher meanwhile who
could see the bearing of principle,
"are never well acquainted with it be-
ueause they detest it, and often detest
sit because not acquainted with it."
The first step necessary for this &C
ouaintance is TO put ourselves in pos
session of the right attitude of mind
and heart which will prepare us to be
impartial judges, and that will operate
to open up to US whatever OF value
there is in the system we would under
stand. In other words, if we would
know what there is in religion, If we

THE DISCIPLES AS CHILDREN.

The humble, repentant, trusting, confiding,
loving disciples are represented in several
places in the New Testament as little chill
dren. John, the Divine, calls them little chill
dren in his epistles. Peter also calls them
babes in Christ, and i'll many other places
they are represented as little children. And
l firmly believe that these were the little ones
that Jesus had special reference to when he
was trying to more fully impress upon his
disciples hearts, and says, "Take heed that
ye despise not one of these little ones; for l
say unto you, that in heaven their angels do
always behold the face of my Father which
is in heaven" Again he says: /" WhosoeVer,
therefore, shall humble himself as this little
child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of
heaven" and "Whosoever shall receive one
such little child in my name, receiveth me-"
Who does he mean when he says one such
little child? Just what he means when he
says, "Whosot yer, therefore, shall humble
himself" meaning the humble, repentant
sinner. most assnredly, and not the natural
infant that he used as a figure. I'D.

Allow me to express my feelings in refer
ence to the letter from Kansas Methodist
preacher, in The UNIvERsAI1sT of Feb. II. I
would that copy of that issue could be
placed in the hands of every Methodist, or,
might say, every orthodox family in Canada.
L have read it and re-read it, and loaned it to
many others, who have declared that it ex-
pressed their own convictions on that ques-
ton. Could the letter be printed in cheap
form for general distribution it would make
an efficient missionary document. Its au-
thorship is sufficient to commend it to the at
tsntion of those of like church relations. If
it cannot be so issued do hope that you will
reproduce it in the columns of The UNIvERs-
